doublemeup 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Scotty Nguyen raises to $74,000 from the cutoff position, and Johnny Donaldson considers calling from the small blind. Nguyen says, "If you can beat queens, move all in, baby." Donaldson does just that, moving all in. Nguyen calls and shows -- pocket queens (Qc-Qh). Donaldson shows Jd-10c, and apparently he didn't believe Scotty Nguyen. (This is reminiscent of the last hand of the 1998 World Series main event, when Scotty Nguyen uttered one of the best quotes in poker history -- "If you call, it's all over baby.")

That hasn't happened in a while and the last WPT final table sucked with all respect to David Singer. I hope Scotty takes it down from the Grinder HU. Link to post Share on other sites
champsox 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Cant believe Scotty got that donk to call all in with J-10 off. Guess that's what his table talk can do to people. On a side note, I'm playing .50/1 NL on Full Tilt now, with a guy named Phil Ivey on my right. Link to post Share on other sites

SweetDaddyFreak 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Knowing typical Scotty he will crash and burn going out six...swI hope Scotty does well but I like the Grinder's chances better and Gavin's a thug. Hope final 3 is those three, that would make some tight tv."You quote me and it's gonna be all over, baby!" Link to post Share on other sites

bm99 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Is it just me, or did anyone else think this would be bad ettiquette to talk about your hand like that while someone else is thinking. I remember something similar happen in an old WSOP where a guy told another guy what he had the TJ cloutier got mad and said you better be lying if u pull something like that.

Played with him for about 45 min, then he switched to another table to give other people a shot at him. Only played 2 pots with him, both were folds to us in the blinds. Had a lot of fun, as he was talking to everyone. Link to post Share on other sites
TheLadiezMan 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 That's cool, I was just hoping you weren't that donk BigRedDouchebag, he was just giving money away. I kind of feel sorry for this pro's as whenever they're on they have to deal with a million questions all at once and are expected to answer them all. Then I Remember the amount of money they have and I chuckle. Link to post Share on other sites

celtic020 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Very true about Scotty..."If you can beat" is different than "I have"...what Scotty did here was not bad sportsmanship and it wasnt illegal, just a little bit of gamesmanship to get that donkey to stuff it in with J high. He used the same tactic when he won the WSOP as everyone knows. I love watching Scotty play. Link to post Share on other sites

wildman wsop 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 scotty win one the best tournament players, always, always makes the final table its unbelieveable how many he has made it there. Like atleast once every 5 or 6 tournies, I'm serious. I am going to be so bold and say he is the best tournament in the last 5 years, if u dont beleive check out his sheet, so many final tables its unreal, and his personality is unmatched I love to just watch that guy play and talk, babyMatt Link to post Share on other sites

BNH77 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Does any one know what the actual rule is about talking about your hand? Its a raging debate in our poker league.... any thoughts would be much appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites
mosley 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 i think that in most major tourneys (though i have never played in one), if you tell what your hand is, or flip and expose your cards to other players in the hand, you may be subject to a penalty, such as a time penalty or your hand being declared dead.i think it is up to the discretion of the tournament staff.don't quote me on this (or do, i really don't care).

Rude Dog 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I heard they have a new rule...you can talk about your hand, but, you can't tell the truth.Seriously, you can say "I have a pair of Queens", but, you better not.Don't know what the penalty is, maybe you have to sit in Linda Johnsons lap for twenty minutes?

_Great_Dane_ 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Does any one know what the actual rule is about talking about your hand? Â Its a raging debate in our poker league.... Â any thoughts would be much appreciated.In the rules athttp://www.harrahs.com/wsop/rules.htmlit says, "Verbally disclosing the contents of your hand or advising a player how to play a hand may result in a penalty."This rule can easily be sidestepped by saying, "if you can beat pocket queens, go all in" etc.I asked Johnny Grooms what he would do if a player showed his hand to affect play. He said that he would penalize the player in tournament chips. I think he said two or three big blinds worth of chips. Link to post Share on other sites
gouldjr27 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I have seen the hand declared dead. But I remember reading in Super System that Doyle would flip his cards over and look at the expression on his opponent's face. Would cash games be different from tournies?

DrawingDeadInDM 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Cash games are different. But there can be no more betting behind you. It pretty much has to be after a player has moved all in in a heads up pot. I'm pretty sure if you show your hand with action behind its' dead at least in my local cardroom.
